Didn't say anything, I guess it would be to awkward.
still, best to keep em somewhat hidden, like always under the bedsheets, not out in the open.

Mine never said a thing, I've been caught with it a few times now. Guess they just don't care or don't bother to say anything. It would only upset me in the end so that's probably why..

If you're already involved with collecting otaku stuff in general it should be fine, otherwise just hide it

They -all women- said she was very pretty... completely unexpected, indeed.

I would think that if your room is already filled with many other otaku related items, it wouldn't come to much of a surprise to them. If you think it will though, then just don't show it to them/use at night, etc.

Thank you for the replies. I think I will buy one. I don't own many otaku related items. But I think they are ok with figures. Maybe I could always remove the cover from the pillow. The problem is they always enter my room without warning. But I'm not sure whether I should buy a pillow at all. Especially the shipping might be expensive. What do you think about stuffing the cover with something like this?

Which pillow did you buy? What do you think about its quality?

Hmm, I wouldn't know about it. It IS pillow stuffing, so if you pack it real tight, there might not be a difference. The only pain maybe might be when you wash it, if you do.

Like I said, just find some time when you are home alone or whatever and have glorious time with your dakimakura then.

It's not that hard to hide it, it is just a pillowcase, find somewhere to stuff it under or something. I can't say where,
I don't live in your room, as for ordering a pillow, it will be very expensive if you live in Germany, and still a bit pricey if you live in the U.S. even. Unless you're real picky abotu what pillow is inside your Dakimakura, just try and find a nice fit with one or two half-body size pillows. It works for me.

I'd advise to hide it for the sake of both parties.

Ya know? They probably wouldn't care. My mom is an anime fan, and my dad is a D&D nerd.

Haven't bough one yet though. Thinking either something like a cattleya or custom from a doujin group.

Monty is out, PEACE!

Each Catleya's boob can be a dakimakura on its own.

OP here. First I bought a cheap body pillow. "I can sleep better with it". After some time I bought a cover. "The old pillow was too small." And pillow stuffing. They didn't say much. So everything worked out fine. Thank you. I really recommend buying a dakimakura. I can't stop grinning when I hug her.

Both of my parents accepted it with varying degrees of disappointment. I think my mom is a little embarrassed when she sees it. My dad doesn't really care.

It's the best purchase I've ever made.

I keep her hidden under a blanket under my mattress. The downside is I can only ever hug my daki when mom isn't home. Don't like to think what would happen if she found out about my secret.
